Ten Go For Sun Chariot

Newmarket is all set for a top-class renewal of the Group 1 Kingdom Of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes on Saturday when 10 runners will line up.

Locally-based trainer Sir Michael Stoute will be vying to win the race for the third time and he´ll send out Chic, Favourable Terms and Peeress.

The first-named of the trio has been in great form over the past five weeks, winning the Group 2 Celebration Mile at Goodwood and then only finding Attraction too good in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown on September 10.

Sir Michael´s second runner - 2004 Nassau Stakes heroine Favourable Terms - proved that she retains all of her ability when winning the Sceptre Stakes at Doncaster on her belated seasonal reappearance earlier in September.

Peeress has not been seen out since coming a good third in the Group 1 UAE Equestrian & Racing Federation Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket´s July Course on July 5. She had previously won the Group 2 Windsor Forest Stakes at Royal Ascot at York. Maids Causeway makes her much-anticipated comeback after she was found to be injured following her thrilling Coronation Stakes´ victory at Royal Ascot at York in mid-June.

The Barry Hills-trained filly showed her well-being when enjoying a racecourse gallop with stable-mate Whazzat during Newmarket´s two-year-old meeting on September 20.

Newmarket trainer James Fanshawe will be represented by the progressive four-year-old Musicanna. She registered her fourth straight win when taking the Listed Atalanta Stakes at Sandown but this will be a step up again for her.

Virginia Waters is poised to revisit the site of her most glorious moment to date. The Kingmambo filly scorched to glory in the 1,000 Guineas on the Rowley Mile back in early May. She hasn´t scored since racing to Classic joy but her recent third behind Attraction in the Matron Stakes was an encouraging effort.

Penkenna Princess goes for the in-form Ralph Beckett team, while the one continental raider is Shapira from German handler Andreas Lowe´s yard, second to Divine Proportions last time out.

The field is completed by Attune - winless so far this term - and Summitville, who regained the winning thread when taking a Bath Listed contest in August, her first victory since clinching the May Hill as juvenile.
